Lorls. S. C , March 29oh,?Much | interest was manifested here la9t f Friday in the trial of the case of m Town of Loris vs. Norman Mosely, I Jl charged with a violation of the ordP ^ inanco of the town prohibiting the accumulation of waste, saw dust, refuse about lumberyards, saw mills and like places within the corporate limits of the town, the ordinance requiring the hauling of this out of town or the burning of it, or other methods of disposing of it, so tnat the health aod sanitation of the town will not be endangered. The warrant against him charged that he bad violated this ordinance about the 14th of February last. In fact the intendent of the town bad caused him to be arrested on February 8th and as this was upon his official knowledge) no warrant bad been issued. At the time of the appointed hearing on the first charge, the case was postponed in order that a formal warrant might be issued and served on the defendant. The trial came off on last Friday under this warrant. It appeared in the proof that he _ bad allowed this matter to go on about the mill for a considerable / length of time as he used the saw Idust to fill in a low place on his land. There was a large pile of wooden slabs and refuse near the mill and on the wet ground near the swamp The defendant stated in bis testi^ \ , rpony that he had bargained to sel^ ~ * see slabs to a company in Wilmington as soon as they put in a ,.ipur trackLand that he intended to fill up tBe low land on his place with the saw dust, later place dirt on top ? y of the dust and then erect houses thereon. The prosecutor in the case was N. J. Hardee, the chief of police, but he only did this at the suggestion of the Mayor. The defendant was represented by L. D. Hide of (the Marion bar, and the town by H. H. Woodward. The trial took place in the ball-way of the new building of the Loris Supply Co., - - - * - t a ?11 u ' ^ ' and the space was pacaeu wan bueu\ tators as (he attorneys made their arguments Good arguments were j trade on b;>th sides. The jury returned a verdict of guilty aftef remaining out for a short time. The sentence of the court was a One of $20.00. The defendant at once gave notice of an appeal to the court of General Sessions, and the case will be contested there on several . % grounds, among them being the ' grounds that the town has no legal right to enact such and ordinance, under the constitution and laws of the State. Mr. Mosely came to Loris tao or three years ago, and for the past t^o years he has been conducting a paw mill near the trestle just this ,^ side of the Loria depot. Death of Laura Emma Anderson.

F. Rice of Aikc n, S. C., presiding. Tho lirst thing attended to after the court was opened was the calling of the jurymen and tho recording of their mileage. Then the roster of cases lixed for trial, and recently published, was called over. All of tho casos on this roster, were disposed of without trial, except tho three cases as follows. J. R. Bronsou vs. T. B. Smith. Vereen vs. Horry County, R. L. Oliver vs. J. L. Coodmau.

To Trustees and Patrons: The year 1912 was our banner year in educational progress and I hope that we may do as well in 1919, We hsve made a splendid start. We have to work with this year 190,000. for high school, $60,000 for weak schools, $20,000 for rural graded schools and $5,000 for libraries. Last year we established one hi&h .school aud four rural graded schools, and I have several applications for rural graded schools. I think we can put in live or six this year. The library fund is sufficient to twenty live new lioraries in each county. I have applications already for two, can we not get twenty three more? Of the $60,000 for weak schools, last year Horry got $1000, more than any other county in the state, but I want us to do better thau that this year. A ie,v days ago, I went to Columbia and had a personal talic with tbo Saato Supt. of blducation about the extension work and be told me that all schools that would vote a tax of two mills or more uow that he would pay them the state aid and after July or next fall pay them again, that is he would pay them a year in advance, This is a very liberal proposition and several schools arc now ready to take advaufcage of it. The schools that haye voted on a tax and are ready to take advantage of the state aid are Barcol, Poplar Hill and Waccamaw, To got tho advantage of this clTjr, the tax must be voted in before the Auditor writes up his book tho last of May and first of Juno. *f hope to continue the work of building this year and will ask all trustees who think of building to call ill tho first Saturday that is con Vou.vut I have several applications and 1 want to see the houses go up Don't bo too late about voting on your special tax. After the auditor writes up his books, it will be too late for this year. All fKaCti mihl'nUKinll/Mm n 11/, nw 4.A.A0.
